  "The Game of Life", Part I    
Multiple Choice
 10 Qns
This is my first created quiz. This is for the 1990s version of "Life", not the version some 20 years ago which didn't have the various cards (like Salary and Career) and had more playing pieces. True fans who know the rules should do well.

There are only three red spaces: Job Search (available only if you take the College route), Get Married, and Buy a House.

Orange spaces take up the majority of the spaces.

8. What is the recommended age (in years) for playing The Game of Life - SpongeBob Squarepants edition (Canadian version)?

12. What is the highest paying job in Bikini Bottom from the four options listed below?

From Quiz The Game of Life - SpongeBob Squarepants Edition

Answer: Fry Cook
